Official Gmail Blog: New in Labs: Stop sending mail you later regret (203)
on
Gmail Blog (480) permalink
Posted by Jon Perlow, Gmail engineerSometimes I send messages I shouldn't send. Like the time I told that girl I had a crush on her over text message. Or the time I sent that late night email to my ex-girlfriend that we should get back together. Gmail can't always prevent you from sending messages you might later regret, but today we're launching a new Labs feature I wrote called Mail Goggles which may help.When you ...Shared by [Curtis W] (43) Adam (24) Adam (21) Adam Singer (28) AdamB (22) Albie (28) Alex France (155) Allan (28) Ami Chitwood (4) Andrea (20) Andrew Littler (17) Andrew Meyer (27) Andrew Sims (2) Andrew Taylor (57) Andrew Trinh (57) Andy (15) AndyDrew (18) Ange (7) angol (53) Angus (32) anna (19) Anu (16) Arvid (22) atul (153) Azeem (20) bdescary (21) bill adee (23) billrod (30) Bonstio (23) Brent the Closet Geek (38) Brian (22) Brian (21) Brian (169) Caleb Brown (14) Cameron Yeager (13) Carl Dunn3 (24) Carlos Riquelme (39) carterfsmith (12) charlie anzman (116) Chris Greenough (4) Chris Gurney (26) Chris Ryall (21) Chris Wilson (22) chriscoyier (51) Chung (140) Craig Stokes (3) dani (23) Dave (26) Dave S (25) DaveBinM (14) David (1) David Arcos (38) David Hoang (11) Dennis Gonzales (30) dffrnt (53) Diego C (21) DJ (20) dobata (307) Doug Funny (97) Edo (21) Elliot (21) Emily W (66) Ethan (20) Farzin (42) Ferdinand1977 (20) Fernando (37) Fred (21) Garrett (20) gCg (13) George (27) gfurry (41) Greg (20) guy (431) HART (1-800-HART) (59) hikbi (174) Hiro SHINOHARA (6) Howard Yermish (24) iAlja (69) Ian Benedict (9) Imelda (19) Jackilyn (3) James (9) Jared Mehle (7) Jason (1) Jason (31) Jay Bandoy (56) jay4el (21) Jeronathon Angeles (19) Joffrey (14) John (9) John Kreicbergs (2) John MacAdam (21) Jon Tilton (10) Jordi (42) Josef (21) Justin (9) katepe (6) Kathy Brewis (159) keith (85) Keith Coleman (1) Kevin (4) Kim (13) kkr (19) Kristen Teffeteller (28) Kuushal (21) Kyle (28) LANjackal (70) Laughing Squid (27) Leon (18) Liz Davis (33) LouCypher (76) Luke (18) Lynn Forthewin (5) marcell (29) Marcus Mattsson (12) Mari (5) Marianne (28) Mark (61) Mark Whiting (20) marvyn (6) Max (24) McBilly Wilford Sy (32) mfelkins (13) Michael B.

- Zeus said: Ahhh those gmail engineers.. clever!
- Sinan Yüce said: webikinoktasifir - Bu çözüm daha önce spam mailleri önlemek için düşünülmüştü fakat bence buradaki amaca hizmet etmesi daha güzel olmuş. Ama bence bu eklenti şöyle geliştirilebilir. Her sorunun arasında gönderdiğini mailden birkaç cümle yerleştirilebilir. Siz hesaplamaları yaparken arada yazdıklarınızı görürseniz matematik sorularını cevaplarken kullandığınız mantık bu cümlelere de mantıklı açıdan bakmanızı sağlayabilir.

- AndyDrew said: I remember a time when I was 16 and I told a girl I loved her via email... but I was an idiot then. Point-in-case; I was using Hotmail. This doesn't really seem all that useful now that I'm not dating someone, and nor do I feel the urge to confess undying love to anyone.As a side note: if you always wished I would confess undying love for you, assume I have this enabled and do to unfortunate circumstances that email was never sent =P

Popular Mechanics magazine runs a list of 100 do-it-yourself skills that every "competent man" should know. Our annoyance about the gender specificity aside, the list is decent, if a bit stretched out to hit that 100 total. How many of these things do the women and men who read Lifehacker know how to do?
